You will need to put Spitfire needels and jet's in your carb.  For the
jet's it's only a matter of finding ones of the correct inside bore. 
You can also probebly use the stock needels from a Spitfire streight
from the HS4's size 'ABT'.  You may also need the piston spring from a
Spitfire.  


As for the initial hesitation, first check the piston for sticking when
you push it up.  Then the next thing to look at is putting lighter
weight oil in there.
